Musings on 'digital sovereignty'

Some initial, probably flawed, thoughts on the notion of digital sovereignty

@neil On the one hand, I think the terminology is fraught, because what the people saying "digital sovereignty" often mean is "not relying on for-profit companies whose interests might not align with one's own." On the other, the reason why state borders are part of the discussion is because the interests of the largest tech companies in the world are linked to the fascist US gov's, now overtly, and they do not align with other countries' sovereignty.
